JM4 Looper features over 100 Endless Jam tracks and drum grooves in more than 10 styles performed by top LA and Nashville session players.

The looper has dedicated footswitches for Record/Overdub, Play/Stop, Half Speed and Undo for super-easy practicing, songwriting and creation of an entire backing band on the fly. Layer guitar tracks, bass tracks, keyboards-even vocals with the balanced XLR microphone input.

Complete with a comprehensive collection of brilliant modern and historic guitar tones, JM4 Looper gives you access to 200+ artist-created presets, 150+ song-based presets, 12 Line 6 amp models and a stunning array of effects for guitar and vocals.

Tony has since played with a long list of greats including David Gilmour, Marty Friedman, Gary Hoey and Quiet Riot.

Musical director and bassist Dave Pomeroy has played on more than 400 albums with such players as Elton John, Willie Nelson, Trisha Yearwood and The Chieftains. Dave was voted Bassist of the Year at the 1997 Nashville Music Awards.
